Chapter 55 (2/2)

“Isn’t Yuja in there?”

“Huh? Oh, um…”

Myohan had heard him call Yuja, but he looked away instead of saying yes. He looked suspicious, so Myohan knocked on the bathroom door!

“Yuja, Sinsul has to pee, now.”

“No!”

At the same time, Sinsul quickly stood between him and the door. Myohan looked at him, silently asking what he was doing. Sinsul avoided his gaze, bit his lips, and shook his head.

“Yuja’s not in there.”

“What are you talking about? Who’s in there, then?”

“No one! There’s no one in there!”

“Then why aren’t you going in?”

Myohan frowned and turned the knob. It was knocked, but then he heard fluttering sounds from the inside.

“….Yuja?”

Sinsul now looked very sad. Myohan put an ear on the door to hear better, and then he turned the knob again.

Another fluttering sound. He tried again, but this time, no sound came. However, it only made Myohan sure of it. He looked at Sinsul, who was now on the floor, and then back at the locked door. He narrowed his eyes.

“Yuja’s in there.”

Yuja’s worry he had been looking for all this time was right behind that door. What was he supposed to do? Wait for him to open the door and come out? Or should he open it himself and go in? As for the former, he didn’t know how long it would take for Yuja to come out, and as for the latter, it was going to require some force and taking care of the aftermath.

“…Oh, what should I do?”

Sinsul buried his face in his hands. To think about it, Sinsul had been knocking on the door way before Myohan got up. He knocked on the door again.

“Yuja, no matter what you look like now, I’ll forget it, so please open the door for Sinsul.”

“He’s about to go in his pants.” Myohan added that as a joke, but it wasn’t a joke to Sinsul. He couldn’t deny it and hugged his legs, making him look pitiful enough. But no sound came from the bathroom.

Now Myohan was impressed by Yuja’s stubbornness. He had to have realized Myohan knew what he was by now, but he was still insisting.

“Do you think he’s not opening the door on purpose?”

Myohan wondered if Yuja was really that selfish, but then he heard a voice behind him. Both Sinsul and him jumped up in surprise.

“He’s not that cold-blooded.”

It was O Shin, who had been sleeping only a minute ago. Myohan put a hand on his heart to make it calm down, and O Shin seemed to think it was cute. Sinsul muttered he had almost gone in his pants. Myohan frowned and whispered, “Don’t sneak up on me like that.”

“You don’t deserve to say that!”

He tried to speak quietly, but Sinsul wasn’t exactly helping him. He quickly put a hand on his face and told him to be quiet lest the other boys would wake up, but then they heard another voice.

“What are you doing there?”

Well, there we go. Damn it. Miho looked around and rubbed his eyes, not sure of what was going on. Then he stood up and came to them, but the problem was it was too dark and the boys were sleeping scattered on the floor.

“Ouch!”

Sajun suffered first. Miho stepped on his foot. Miho quickly removed it, but Sajun grabbed the foot and moaned in pain.

“What, what?”

“Oh, shit… Who’s talking?”

After that, it was so simple. The scream surprised Jagyeom and he got up. Even Myo Cheong got up too. He muttered all kinds of curses, still drunk with sleep, and then he looked at the mess around him and scowled.

“What the hell is this?”

It all happened in less than half a minute.

“Shit.”

What had happened couldn’t be undone. Myohan sighed at the series of events that happened so quickly. He could have opened the bathroom door in silence, let Sinsul use the toilet, and have a genuine conversation with Yuja. He hadn’t wanted to wake everyone up, and he most certainly hadn’t wanted Myo Cheong, who was still half asleep, come and get ready in front of the door.

“If you can’t open the door, you can break it.”

He raised a leg and hit the locked door before anyone could stop him. The bang! sound even woke up Jino, which Myohan hadn’t wanted at all.
